Extract of a Utter from tht Editor of the Jovzxil,doled,

M CoLcxtci, (Ga.) July St:>, 1636." I shall go round the nation, by going ap the rivetto West Point, and then across to ciutnpka.

u small town at the junction of the Coosa and Tal-,Sfwwr* rivers- This route has been travelled, jthroughout the campaign, with perfect safety. 1 |am informed, by many, that there is no danger to jhe apprehended in going directly through the natron.1 do not wish, however, to run any unnecessaryrisk; and as this route will require only a day jmore in travelling, 1 have decmrd it most prudentto adopt it. 1 shall go in company with too or threefndtflm."Too will, no doubt, hare aero it rrpratedly

stated thai the Creek war is over. This 1 do no;Isfaos, thoughgwe moat hope for the best. Jib Hmbt,the Creek Oecola, is undoubtedly-, now a prisonerat Tuskeegee Got. Sculct senlover acotnpasyto demand bira, in order that he might heremeet the fate doc to his crimes. But Got. Cut,of Alabama, had anticipated bita, and already takentuCD into possession.so that Alabama, and not

Georgia, will mete out to him that toward whichhis aggrarated cruelties merit- It is said here, thatthe troops will be disbanded in a few days, andwcenerer this event lakrs place, I anticipate a renewalof hostilities. They should not be discbar«ged until eTcry Indian is on the march for his arcstermkerne," ft is rumored here, this errning. bat open wbtl

authority 1 know not, that Col. Bkall, who wasseat aftcra large party of Indians, who were makingtheir way to Florida, bad overtaken them some

distance below Baker county, in this state, routedand cot tbcm to pieces. I hope it may be true, butthere are such a variety ot rumors, of all sortsafloat that it is impossible to determine which tobeliere. .

" Gen. Scott is not mote popular here than in !Florida, bat Geo. Jtncr m winning goIdea oyizion*.The notorious Jtx Hcsbt wee Ukrn by i

puty of friendly Indians under his command." It is expected that the <toge will commence

running between this and Montgomery towardslbs end of the present week."

KNO.W1LLE CONVENTION.We glean the following information from an cr *;

trn of the Colombia Times and Gazette: -Amember from this State who left Knoxville on the ;7th, states that the convention was organised at the Iappointed time,and Gen. Ilsvsa appointed I'rrsident,with400 nacubets in attendance, representingUn states. It is uncertain what luute will be adopted.itis however adnutted by all that the roadmast poos down the French Broad. T he cost «

which is estimated at I! .000,000 dollar* It appear* !there was an enderstanding among the members jfar tkt jmrpoo* of prtsterrmg harmony, that no peculiarroute should be spoken of, not even m pn> jv*..

THE COTTON CROP. \Wo ore informed by our western papers that therains and frrwrhets have been so frequent that notmot* than half crops will be made on the Alabamariver, should the balance of tbr season be ever so

favorable This wc believe is the case throughoutthe whole southern country.which, together with 1

the great deficiency consequent on the Indian and 4

Texian wars, must inevitably LU far short of.thodemand. This stale of things will, we think, bebo the means of on advance ic prices.so much so,'that the planter will grt almost, if not quite, as

znocb for bis half crop u be would, bad a fall one

beta made.

Oar readers sriQ Sad in lo-daj'a paper a letterfrom the Editor, who ia at present on a toox througha portion of the western country. He differs withthe latest information we have received as to a

(speedy cessation of hostilities in the Creek nation.A lino of posts has been established on the mailroate between Cutambas, Geo. and Montgomery,Ate. for the parpoaeot intercepting straggling In.diana and giving perfect -wearily to the maila. ),

TEXAS. J |The rooogaitiou of tb Independence of Texas1has bees, by common consent, left to the trill ofthePresident. It is placing at Ha dupoaal the libertyof a people born to be free. This is indeed whatws did not expect from those who, at no very distantday, characterized him as li»c greatest tyranton earth. j i

THE SURPLUS. {iWe have ascertained, from a tabic calculated on

the h.is of a surplus of 30,000,000 on the first o'January, 1837, that Sooth Carolina will receive,according to the mode of distribution, l,123,tr>l or

6,7*8 dollars more than she contributes. The questionnow is what shall be done with this moneyWe say, loan a ou. to the several corporations foxthe purpose o< Internal Improvements.The invention of Dr. Nott for rendering AnUxra*

(

cits coal a substitute for wood, has been tried andproved successful. This gentleman has, tor severalvMn. with no little lihnt ..i i. / ! . . . mutu cxpvnvr *!'plied Um power of bis funl mind to tne sccoraplnlrment of this great object bj which he baa conferredupon bis count// an incalculable benefit. Hadnot tbia discover/ been made, the effect on our northernSteamers in a few /ears for the want of wood*rooid bare been «ach as to render almost necewa'^

, ry the destruction of one for the soslcuanoe of tlxother, and consequently the total suppression o

this mode of- navigation on our northern vratrrsltis well known that almost the whole northcxi

portion of oar country aboands with inexbscstibtdeposits of the Anthracite coal, the cost of wbidia comparatively small.so much so, that the ex

pease of the steamer jVovtJty, by its substitution iiher trip between New York -od Albany, has, it

one season, been curtailed near nineteen tkounmidollars, the result of which, must be tbe means, no

only of reducing the price of transportation, bnthe establishment of a line ofsteam packets bctwecithis country and Great Britain.

Q7We here been favored by a triced with tinperusal of the last Mo. of the Southern Baptist, pablisbed in the City of Charleston. It is the first rr<

have seen and therefore examined it attentively,fo:which we were liberally rewarded by its variety o

useful and interesting matter. It is a pspe, wHworthy the notice not only of its doctrinal a 'berentslot of all whose becoming policy is, to collect lh<most information at the smallest expense.

Improving by Degrees .The degree of AdmiralVice Admiral, and Rear Admiral has been createdby the passage of the late Mary Bill. This haibeen done to act as a stimulant to rouse its droopingSpirits, and spnr them on to deeds of " noble daring." Has it come to this T.then talk no more o

Liberty and the love f country, but let our motuhe.I'romotion.

The schr.
